    This guy averaged 2.6 lbs a week on rippetoes. Amazing gains, though a little more bodyfat then optimal, imo.

    Id aim for about 1.5 ish lbs a week if you are relatively untrained.

    Aim for 1lbs a week . But if you're starting out , nothing wrong with gaining around 2lbs few weeks after you've started .
